Judd Apatow’s directorial follow-up to Knocked Up and The 40-Year-Old Virgin has announced its principal cast:
Adam Sandler
Seth Rogen
Leslie Mann
Apatow is the sole writer of this project, and details are being kept under wraps. Apatow might make an appearance at SXSW tomorrow for the premiere of Forgetting Sarah Marshall, and if that happens, I would expect some details to be revealed. The yet-to-be-titled movie will begin production in late Summer or early Fall, and is a co-production of Universal Pictures and Sony Pictures Entertainment.
Discuss: Since we have no idea what this movie could be about, using the cast listing, what do you think the film’s plot may be about?

Schindler’s List 2

Peter, that might be the most epic “Discuss” ever.
March 9th, 2008 at 9:36 pm
I agree with Hunter.

Knocked Up 2: Dead on Arrival

lol @ JB
…If Apatow casting Sandler (zohan, now this) becomes a regular thing…that would be horrible.

Leslie Mann and Seth Rogen?!?!?!? NO WAY!!!!!

It’s set during the depression, a father (Sandler) is forced to take his son (Rogen) across the country to the boy’s aunt’s (Mann) home in St. Joseph, Missouri. To make money they trick widows into buying bibles from the “Kansas Bible Company” and many other cons. Along they way they run into all kinds of colorful characters (Bill Hader, Paul Rudd and Jonah Hill as Miss Trixie Delight).

apatow + sandler, hmm, let’s see: a rom/com where a dopey yet loveable guy aimlessly floats through life with his goofy & loyal buddies, until he meets a girl who inspires him to change his ways & win her heart. Insert fun/unlikely job/career here ——-.
Seth is a bonus though, & let’s all pray I am way wrong on this.

it was my birthday yesterday….4 hours ago…i was inevitable that apatow would get rogen and sandler together….this could a be one off type of team up but it would be sick if they did good and teamed up alot and add ferrell in there that would be ridddiculous
March 10th, 2008 at 5:55 am
I’d take a big bite of that Jew sandwich.
March 10th, 2008 at 6:42 am
I’m so sick of adam sandler… him and will ferral should go away
March 10th, 2008 at 8:02 am
I’m so bored of these people.

Sandler gets bashed a lot, but I think his serious work is pretty good. He should stick with those, although they don’t pay him as well.
As for this movie ..it’s about
Two Siamese twin brothers conjoined at the face, find out that they have an illegitimate child from Leslie Mann, whom is a Night Walker. The brother’s grow apart(emotionally) because they both think they are the father, And it all culminates to the very end where it turns out they weren’t even brothers but their father was a drunk scientist and melded their faces together while he was loaded of his ass. They get a surgery done to separate them, but during the procedure Sandler awakens and forces the doctor to put his brothers face on him. .after that..exactly what happened in the movie Face Off except with more fart jokes.

I wonder if it’ll be as shit as Knocked Up. The only good thing Judd Apatow has done is Superbad.
March 10th, 2008 at 10:32 am
Note: Adam Sandler was on an episode of Undeclared.
March 10th, 2008 at 1:45 pm
Note: Adam Sandler used to be Apatow’s roommate
March 10th, 2008 at 2:25 pm
Callum are you retarded?
Apatow didn’t direct Superbad they(slashfilm) even state that in the short article; IT’S THE FIRST SENTENCE!
just keep on huffing paint in your mom’s basement, apatow doesn’t need your 10 dollars anyways.
March 10th, 2008 at 11:42 pm
Clearly it’s Big Daddy 2.
Little Frankenstein (now played by Seth Rogen) has grown up, but it’s up to his old friend Sonny Koufax (Sandler) to teach him how to become a man.
Leslie Mann returns as the stepmother.

hmm. so we dont know the name of the movie, or what its about, but we know that it will come out at some point.. and that we are waiting for more info from the creators? i dont know about you guys, but i’m pretty sure this is the cloverfield sequel, and that the monster will turn out to be jewish.
March 11th, 2008 at 12:07 pm
notice the similarities. they are the clues.. JJ Abrams. Judd Apatow. both have J followed by A as initials, and both first names feature a double letter, JJ and DD.. coincidence? i dont think so. Now, this post was made on 3/9/08. 3 is the number of names we have that will be in the movie. 9 minus 3 is 6. 6 times 8 is 48. subtract 40, for 40 year old virgin, and you get 08. 3/9/08. the numbers match perfectly. cloverfield sequel.
March 11th, 2008 at 1:48 pm
Md, are you retarded? Apatow produced Superbad
March 13th, 2008 at 7:01 am
Adam and Seth together could be gold. Just like him and Kevin james who worked reallly well together
March 13th, 2008 at 7:02 am
Mann and sandler have worked together on big daddy before sandler is apatows old buddy
